On Vaux Flores Industrial!  Windfall is its name. "Holiday music for artificial intelligence," remarks Greg Hurley. Check it out!

Second Phainopepla rehearsal this past weekend

Yes, it occurred, and this time Myles Boisen dropped by to hear how the tunes were going preparatory to recording us this month. We are in good shape. The consensus seems to be that we are in the tradition of the Velvet Underground, as far as the sound of the band, which is inspiring to think about. Myles complimented me on my guitar sounds, too. Between now and the sessions I will be practicing hard as usual.

No photos were taken this time but I will post some after the recording sessions.
